Lin Feng didn't expect to meet his elder sister in a restaurant. He also didn't expect his elder sister to be humiliated like this.
From the retro carved wooden screen, he could vaguely see his elder sister's embarrassment and paleness. Even so, she still maintained a smile. That awkward and ingratiating smile made Lin Feng sad and angry.
Why did she have to be so humble?
Why did she have to please them?
Why?
Even so, what could she change?
"Feng, these dishes are too expensive. Is this too extravagant?"
At this moment, Gao Hai walked over with two big bags in his hands and sighed.
These two big bags of food cost nearly 6,000 yuan, which was enough for their family's living expenses for three to four months.
Gao Hai was a little regretful. If he had known, he wouldn't have recommended this place. He heard his classmates talking about it and thought that it wouldn't be too expensive. He didn't expect that the price here was only less expensive than a real five-star restaurant. It was much more expensive than most big restaurants.
Originally, when he saw the price on the menu, he wanted to drag Lin Feng away. Although it was a little embarrassing, it was not as important as money.
However, Lin Feng calmly started to order. If he hadn't stopped him, it might have exceeded 10,000 yuan.
Even if it was only 6,000 yuan, it still made his heart ache.
"What's wrong?"
After Gao Hai sighed, he saw that Lin Feng was motionless. His expression was cold. He was puzzled.
"Is it Sister Kerou?"
Lin Feng didn't answer. He just looked coldly at everything in the room. Through the screen, Gao Hai saw Lin Kerou. Before he could speak, Lin Feng knocked on the screen and walked in.
"Xiao Feng?"
Seeing Lin Feng appear, Lin Kerou, who was already restless, stood up in surprise.
She was a little flustered because Lin Feng's expression was not very good. He was exuding a cold aura.
At this moment, Chen Hao also stood up. He glanced at his girlfriend, thinking that Lin Kerou had informed Lin Feng to have dinner here.
"Ah Feng, why are you here?"
Seeing Lin Feng's cold expression and not saying a word, Chen Hao's expression changed slightly. He knew that Lin Feng had heard him.
He had been dating Lin Kerou for four years. Although their relationship was ordinary, he was no stranger to his brother-in-law.
He knew that because of his father, Linfeng had always been a bit of a loner. He had a strong sense of self-esteem and never accepted any gifts from him.
He was far more mature than his peers, self-disciplined and strong, and he valued his family very much.
The few rare conversations they had were all about Lin Kerou. Lin Feng hoped that he could treat her well.
At that time, he had promised Lin Feng that he would not let his girlfriend suffer the slightest grievance. But now that his mother was humiliated like this, he was not only distressed but also angry.
Chen Hao wanted to explain, but he didn't know what to say.
There was nothing to explain. The truth was very clear. His family, including his relatives, looked down on his girlfriend.
"It's your younger brother?"
Based on Chen Hao and his girlfriend's reactions and the fact that they both had the same surname, the people in the room guessed that the young man in front of them was Lin Kerou's younger brother.
Seeing that the young man was not to be trifled with, it was obvious that he had heard their conversation. The atmosphere was a little awkward, but they didn't take it to heart.
He was just a high school student.
He didn't even care about Lin Kerou, let alone her younger brother.
Although one shouldn't bully a young man for being poor, if he was really talented, Chen Hao's parents wouldn't be so against it.
No one spoke. They just looked at Lin Feng, not knowing his purpose in coming in.
Under everyone's gaze, the young man smiled and said, "The food at home is too greasy. I came to pack something light."
The food at home is too greasy. I came to pack something light.
His words made everyone's expression change. Chen Hao's parents' faces darkened. It was obvious that the young man in front of them was here to defend his elder sister.
Mother Chen said, "I usually eat too light. I'm not used to greasy food."
The young man retorted, "The food at home is too greasy. I came to pack something light."
Without any nonsense, he directly slapped her in the face.
This made Chen Hao's parents feel embarrassed, especially in front of all their relatives. They were already very dissatisfied with Lin Kerou, and now they hated her even more.
"Xiao Feng, let's go back."
The moment her brother appeared, Lin Kerou had a bad feeling. She knew her brother's temper and knew how much he cared about her. Before she could reach Lin Feng, Lin Feng had already opened fire.
"Let's go home."
Lin Kerou took Lin Feng's little hand and prepared to leave the private room.
Although she didn't want to offend Chen Hao's parents, she didn't want her brother to be humiliated because of his failure on the Day of Awakening.
"You're young, but you're quite arrogant. Have you eaten here before?
It's too greasy. How ridiculous. "
A young man in his twenties stood up and said disdainfully.
The elders were humiliated and couldn't argue with a young man, so he naturally stepped forward.
"Feng, Feng, you're here?"
At this time, Gao Hai, who had been standing outside the screen and understood what had happened, quickly shouted a few times. He knew it was time for him to appear.
He complained as he walked into the private room. "Even if you want to eat something light, you don't have to come to Extreme Taste. It's a little low-class."
When he saw Gao Hai, the young man's face suddenly stiffened. He had just said that Lin Feng had never eaten here before, and now a fat man had appeared with two large bags of packed food. Wasn't this a slap in the face?
Especially when the fat man's words were even more arrogant.
Too low-class?
Extreme Taste Restaurant was too low-class?
Other than the family gathering once a month, if it was just for their own meals, even those with small assets wouldn't choose to come to Extreme Taste. They really couldn't afford to eat here every day.
Everyone knew that the fat man in front of them said this deliberately, but looking at the bags in his hands, they were indeed from Extreme Taste Restaurant. There was also the restaurant's exclusive logo on the bags, and it didn't seem fake. Furthermore, each bag was filled with at least five or six dishes.
The private room was silent for a moment. Being slapped in the face like this, especially by the younger generation, those who wanted to get back their face couldn't find any words to say.
Mother Chen's face was gloomy. Father Chen, who was wearing a suit and leather shoes, sat on the chair. From the start of the banquet, he had maintained his composure, with the attitude of a successful person. However, at this moment, his complexion wasn't good.
He looked at his embarrassed son, then looked at Lin Kerou, who had an anxious face and slightly red eyes. Finally, he looked at Lin Feng.
He knew that Lin Kerou had a younger brother, who was in his third year of high school. He heard that his talent wasn't bad, but obviously, he failed his awakening day and didn't become a Demon Spiritualist.
If there was, Chen Hao would have said it long ago.
However, this young man, who stood up for his sister, was unusually calm from the moment he appeared in the private room. His eyes were cold, as if he didn't put them in his eyes.
This kind of confidence didn't seem to be a bluff, as if he had a lot of confidence.
"Could it be that there was a mistake?"
At this moment, Father Chen couldn't help but doubt the information that his son said.
They were really from an ordinary family, living in the Shore District.
Since when could the people in the Shore District afford to eat at Extreme Taste Restaurant?
More than ten dishes, even they weren't that extravagant.
"Feng, these are all your elders."
At this moment, Chen Hao, who had been silent, finally opened his mouth. His tone was very serious and even had a hint of reprimand.
Obviously, Lin Feng's performance put him in an extremely awkward position. It even put his parents and all his relatives in an awkward position.
"Hehe."
Facing Chen Hao's reprimand, Lin Feng sneered. That disdainful sneer obviously didn't leave any face for Chen Hao.
In the past, he looked down on Chen Hao. He couldn't even protect his own woman, and his own fate was controlled by his parents. How sad.
How can such a man be relied on?
If there's really no result, then it's better to end it early and prevent his sister from falling deeper.
"Feng, you …"
Lin Feng didn't give him any face, which made Chen Hao very embarrassed. He couldn't help but feel angry.
"Feng, I beg you, quickly leave!"
At this moment, Lin Kerou's mind was in a daze. She didn't dare to look at her boyfriend, no matter who she looked at. She couldn't even imagine what she would have to face after today.
She just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.
"Big Sister, do you remember what I said to you yesterday?"
Lin Feng stood still and let his sister pull him.
He raised his right hand and gently lifted his sister's hair. At this moment, his sister's moving eyes were wet with tears. There was panic and begging in her eyes.
"I said that half a year later, I'll make Chen Hao's family unworthy."
Lin Feng wiped the tears on his sister's face and said word by word.
That indifferent look made it seem as if he was talking about an extremely insignificant matter.
At this moment, everyone was speechless and looked at the young man in surprise. They exchanged glances and then looked at Chen Hao's parents. At this moment, Father Chen and Mother Chen's faces were ashen.
So high that their family couldn't climb up to him?
You, a high school student, have the courage to say this?
"You're Lin Feng, right? What right do you have to say this?"
Father Chen finally couldn't help but ask.
His words were filled with sarcasm and disdain.
He had an income of at least a few million yuan a year. He had three properties and a shop in Jiang City, and his total assets were over a hundred million yuan.
There were many people in Jiang City who were wealthier than them, and there were also many people who were unworthy of them. However, this definitely did not include those who lived in the lakeside district and could not even afford a house.
"Why should I? Because of myself."
At this moment, Lin Feng had no intention of keeping a low profile. In fact, he was a little arrogant. He pointed at his face and said, "My name is Lin Feng. I'm a senior at Jiangxin High School."
There was no reason for it. Just a name was enough. Such arrogance, yet it revealed unparalleled self-confidence.
"Actually, it won't take half a year. Soon, they won't be able to reach me!"
Lin Feng looked at Lin Kerou, who was a little confused, and smiled. His sister should enjoy the best things in the world. How could he allow these people to humiliate her?
The young man's posture and words were so confident that they were even a little ridiculous. However, at this moment, no one dared to mock him.
Since this young man had the courage to say this, he naturally had the confidence!
But what was his confidence?
